National Service in Mississippi

National Service

National service refers to the Corporation for National and Community Service programs:
Senior Corps,
AmeriCorps,
the Social Innovation Fund,
and other programs and initiatives. Participants in these programs address community needs in disaster services, economic opportunity, education, the environment, health, and veterans and military families.

More than 1400 AmeriCorps members and 2600 Senior Corps
volunteers are meeting local needs, strengthening communities, and increasing civic engagement through national service in
Mississippi. This year, CNCS will commit more than $20350000 to support Mississippi
communities through national service.
